Welcome - Fluid Mechanics MECH 3305   Fluid Mechanics
CREDIT HOURS: 3
This course presents the dynamic governing equations of fluid flow in differential forms: continuity, Navier-Stokes and energy. Concepts of stream function, vorticity and velocity potential are also introduced. The physics and modeling of Turbulence in fluid systems is shown. The boundary layer theory is shown and flow past immersed bodies are studied: concepts of drag and lift forces are presented. Compressible flow is introduced: speed of sound, nozzle and diffuser, shock waves, Rayleigh and Fanno flow are all studied.
